CARE AND MAINTENANCE
•
Clean torso when needed using Nasco Cleaner (LF09919U).
•
Store in hard carry case in a temperature controlled environment,
avoiding extreme hot or cold temperatures.
•
Replace batteries regularly for optimum working condition.
•
It is recommended that batteries are removed when not in use.
•
Avoid getting ink on torso simulator or practice boards. Ink will
transfer indelible stains.
TROUBLESHOOTING
•
When preparing to use your SmartScope™ and remote, use
batteries that are fully charged and installed correctly.
(See Figure 3.)
The SmartScope™ is not equipped with a power
button; this may drain the useful life of your batteries.
•
Due to frequency changes, Adult Auscultation Trainer SmartScopes™ with serial numbers 0 to 4999 are only
compatible with remotes with serial numbers 0 to 4999. SmartScopes™ with serial numbers 5000 and up will
only work with remotes with serial numbers 5000 and up. The serial numbers are located on the back of the
device and are handwritten in ink.
(See Figure 4.)

COMMON CAUSES OF NO SOUNDS
• Incorrect SmartScope™ placement.
Move the SmartScope™ slowly over the torso to locate sensors.
See diagrams on page 5 for placement of sensors. You may apply color-coded dots on the heart and lung sites to
assist with training.
• Ear tips facing the wrong way.
Verify that the ear tips of the SmartScope™ are facing forward in your ear canal.
• Battery replacement.
After installing new batteries, make sure to turn the remote off and back on. This allows
the remote and SmartScope™ to reset.
Note:
SmartScope™ does not turn off.
• Battery saver mode.
The remote will go into battery saver mode if left on the same setting for 8 minutes.
Sounds will not be heard if the remote is off.
• Using multiple remotes.
One remote will operate all SmartScopes™ within 100 ft. simultaneously as long as
the serial numbers are compatible. Using multiple remotes can cause interference.
(See Figure 5.)
• Interference.
Wireless communication from another transmitter
using 433 MHz may cause sound selection issues or existing sounds
to stop or restart. Reset the remote by turning it off briefly, then on again
and select a different Heart or Lung sound.
• Connecting an external speaker.
Insert the jack end of the speaker cord into the top of
the SmartScope™.
(See Figure 2.)
• Using an external speaker.
When using an amplifier/speaker, no sounds will be heard
through the SmartScope™ ear tips.
• Check volume.
Make sure the volume on the amplifier/speaker is turned up.
